Last-minute fishing hitch delays announcement of Brexit deal - Irish foreign minister

Reuters reports that Irish Foreign Minister Simon Coveney said that a last minute hitch related to fishing has delayed the agreement of a British-European Union trade deal, but an announcement is expected later on Thursday.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson "had been due to hold a news conference around now. That hasn't happened. So there is some sort of last-minute hitch" related to "small text" of a fisheries agreement, Coveney told Ireland's RTE radio.
